Reviews around house (5.00 of 5)

  • This vacuum performs admirably, it is much quieter than I expected and is great to KEEP your house clean.
  • We have a very clean house and vacuum every day and this over priced
  • Great little vacuum, won’t completely replace the standard machine but keeps the house looking clean.
  • I thought I keep my house clean, but this vacuum proves otherwise.
  • Not impressed, I would rather get my vacuum out and clean the entire house in an hour than mess with Roomba.

Reviews around cycle (4.59 of 5)

  • I work from home and am able to empty the catch bin a couple times during each cleaning cycle.
  • As long as I run it several times a week I don’t have to clean out the bin as often, but it’s always several times per cleaning cycle.
  • After every cleaning cycle the Roomba automatically returns to home base to recharge
  • You can organize and move them towards one side to allow the Robot to go under and surprise you how much dirt collects under our beds!BATTERY LIFE- Each cleaning cycle lasts for 60 Mins with about 25% battery left before it triggers the Return to
  • It picks up far more hair and debris than the upright vacuums we own and, as a result, the bin does have to be emptied about halfway through the cleaning cycle, so we don't run it when we aren't home

Reviews around product (4.09 of 5)

  • Great product, thought it had mapping or reporting capabilities though (more so than what it does).
  • Again it is a great product but it does need a lot of improvements before I can say it is a must have.
  • great product cleans pretty well for a small unit love it
  • I like the product, but I regret not spending $100 more for the next model up.
  • This product fails to find it’s way to the charging station even after a month of use

Reviews around bin (4.03 of 5)

  • Claims to need bin cleaning very often, even when nothing is noticeable.
  • I don't use the scheduling functions of the Roomba at all, as I like to be here to empty the bin or clean out the extractors if needed
  • As long as I run it several times a week I don’t have to clean out the bin as often, but it’s always several times per cleaning cycle.
  • There is also a care section that tells and shows you how to clean the bin, core robot and debris extractors
  • The bin got an error after a two months of use that required a new bin to be sent to me

Reviews around app (3.78 of 5)

  • Pros:- using the App to schedule daily cleanings is a breeze- dust bin holds a surprising amount of debris-navigation works well- leaves beautiful vacuum lines- quiet enough that we can run it downstairs while baby napsWe have been using this Roomba for about 6 months.
  • ,The only cool thing was the App, but of well... still not worth it
  • The app is awesome, the schedule is fabulous and I even have my kids picking their things up because it is going to run

Reviews around robot (3.75 of 5)

  • Others have found the robot's randomness unsatisfactory, and it does at first surprise you, but once you get used to it, you realize it works just fine
  • I though the app was a gimmick at first but the first time you get a notification that the robot is having trouble(like it got stuck) it makes your life so much easier
  • but the robot is very retarded at times in trying to find its base back home and very inconsistent
  • The robot will wonder around for a few minutes after it notifies you on the phone that the job is done, looking for the base and finally it will go there and put itself to charge
  • Once I bought from the IRobot manufacturer I had a perfect robot that does an excellent job

Reviews around vacuum (3.53 of 5)

  • This robotic vacuum gives you the basics and it does a great job vacuuming debris despite having only one single brush.
  • In my opinion so far the vacuuming that is done is pretty good, but not as good as if I vacuumed myself with my regular vacuum
  • This is an expensive vacuum, but if you can afford this I would recommend this for all of your in between and light vacuuming, and if you run this once a day that may be the only vacuuming you may need
  • We have a very clean house and vacuum every day and this over priced
  • This vacuum results in circles of cat hair on that rug even if I trap it in the room for like the entire

Reviews around carpet (3.47 of 5)

  • If you have ever replaced a carpet you know how much stuff gets into the padding as carpet is more difficult to clean properly than wood and tile
  • We have very plush, deep carpet (it's almost like shag carpet), and this Roomba still works incredibly well, which was surprising.
  • Doesn't work on dark carpet; thinks it's going to fall off a cliff due to the limitations of its sensors
  • I said it to go off at 3 in the morning and when I came downstairs this morning my Carpet and Floors were nice and clean

Reviews around roomba (3.33 of 5)

  • The Roomba is also very good at getting out of tight spaces
  • but you will need to pre-clean before letting the Roomba go loose
  • Love the Roomba, it has saved me from so much swiffering
  • After a week I can turn the Roomba loose on all 2000 sq feet.
  • Once your Roomba is out of warranty if it breaks all you have is a piece of junk.

Reviews around area (3.26 of 5)

  • The Roomba did not clean my entire home in one session, but each area that it cleaned was cleaned quite well
  • Its path seems random, and it will often go back and forth over the same spots and ignore other areas
  • Keeps banging against walls and has no idea where it went and where it hasn't gone yet, as a result it frequently does the same area over and over while missing half the house
  • The only drawback is if it has already cleaned an area and you move something and want it to clean that area again, it goes someplace else
  • We've had the unit for just about a month now and have noticed a few things, first, it's not all that "smart" and tends to "over clean" certain areas, it basically just goes over and over a small area and does not like to go over the edges of any of our area rugs, none of which have pads under them or deep pile and are actually quite thin compared to more expensive area rugs.

  • My floors have stayed clean every day since I have used this

Reviews around thing (3.18 of 5)

Reviews around spot (1.76 of 5)

  • First, is a robot, not a human, this doesn't happen all the time but expect it to miss one or two spots, but nothing that you can't clean in 2 seconds after
  • Welp they are not all the sameI did buy a cheap one worked great was for pet hair had 2 brushes like helicopters and the spot it sucked in
  • Yea, doesn't pick up every thing, misses some spots sometimes, still gets
  • It seems to do alright at what it does, but, I miss the "spot" cleaning which is available on another iRobot I have.

Reviews around way (1.44 of 5)

  • Second, my Roomba finds its way back to the charger only about half the time, the other half it either dies too early attempting to find home or just seems to fumble with finally locking itself into the charging station.
  • It can't always find its way "home" and misses a lot of stuff
  • Also pathetic that there's still ZERO MAPPING at this price point, and the thing just randomly wanders around - incredibly inefficient way to clean (or avoid obstacles, what a concept).The invisible walls are also wildly overpriced, but at least they switched from C to AA batteries
  • I tried doing it without it being docked and it does not work that way
  • It does not turn off vacuuming while returning and cleans on its way back as well

Reviews around piece (1.00 of 5)

  • I was very disappointed when I opened the box for the Roomba to find human and cat hair stuck in the little brushes, scratches around the entire vacuum, and missing parts and pieces from the plastic bag
  • Disappointed that you buy an expensive piece of equipment and have it for 2 weeks and the tab for filter door has already broken.
  • Piece of junk compared to our previous vacuum, a Neato

Reviews around furniture (1.00 of 5)

  • This little robot navigates around furniture walls and obstacles wonderfully
  • No more crashing around into my expensive wood furniture
  • Love this Roomba, better than our first one, doesn't bang the furniture but instead, it slows down!!
  • When Roomba finally could be activated, The intricacies of our floor plan, hard surfaces, oriental rugs, and lots of furniture overwhelmed Roomba's ability to adapt
